What could be more apropos The Mall than a cheesy Christmas record repeated incessantly? Loop on, kids.

Vivid Christmas memory: I was quite young, just beginning to feel comfortable walking on my own. My family had just sat down for some Christmas dessert when we all heard someone ho-ho-hoing and ringing a really big bell outside. So everyone runs to the back door and there is a guy dressed as Santa climbing over people's backyard fences. Naturally, us kids freaked out. Our parents told us years later that it was our next door neighbor's brother who had a few too many drinks.

Wow! They let you guys in the MALL! That mall lady sounded so NEW JERSEY!!! with a hint of Fran Drescher. You almost make me want to go to the mall...

Hey Liz, since your in the mall and you don't go on for a while and I need some things. I need a bare bones dancing hula girl with the mount-o-matic base, couple packs of Polaroid film, red stockings (you pick the material) and a bottle of champaign? That will get my list started. Thanks

They are on the ground floor in the mall, just outside Macy's, near Kohls, at the base of the elevator. You have good reason to be afraid of malls... I suffer from Mall Anxiety which is why I couldn't hang around when I visited them..

"Five Pound Box of Money" was one of my late father's favorite Yultide gag lines. 'Scuse the unironic sentiment, but thanks so much for bringing a nostalgic smile to my tired old face.

apparently there are 640 bills to the pound, in case you were wondering

are you kidding? I live for that kind of crap.

Pat, you won't regret it. I am old enough to remember seeing TV commercials for the original theatrical release of "Conquors", and I can assure you that it is a quality product.

I'm getting dropouts in the stream, is it the remote broadcast?

Mon. 12/15/08 11:25am
Ken:
Yes, it's the crappy wireless reception at the mall that is causing all of the dropouts.

yeah that one was particularly bad

Mon. 12/15/08 11:26am
happy listener:
aside from that, broadcasting from the mall is a great idea

I saw "Conquers" on MST3K years ago, and I was disappointed. It was not even a tenth as entertainingly awful as most of the MST3K catastrophes. Too self-aware, for one thing.

jeff m:
i only meant you might regret it as a joke. It's definitely worth taking it a look at. You can even sometimes buy it in drug and grocery stores for like 2$. It's definitely a "special" film.

it's more than likely, being at her parent's house, that if I DON'T drink, mama's gonna cry because of my mood...

I forgot to say, what was up with playing that frackin' cliched and brutally ear-bleedingly awful Chipmunks bull-Schlitz at 9:05? I was on the Newark Light Rail so I couldn't comment in real time but I was like, "Aw, HELL NO!" I had to switch it off immediately -- did you at least start abusing it a few minutes in? PLEASE tell me you did a mash-up or switched over to the altered "real voices" version. Anyway I'm glad it got better after that, with no more cliches.

Oh and if I see any carolers, I'm smacking them with a dead fish. Merry freakin' Xmas!

Oops, that was me. As if you couldn't tell.

jeeZUS lighten up Ike. It's not like they used bad grammar or something...

That's as light as I get! But I should also say that I loved "Back Door Santa." At least for the title.
